“I think the solution is to make the year 400 days, this is a solution, 400 or 500, more or less. Then maybe the two European federations And the international talk about increasing matches. “
Guardiola, 49, who believes that the English League Cup will continue to be wonderful even if the Premier League clubs do not participate in it, continued, saying: “Less games, fewer tournaments, fewer teams, higher quality, less quantity. People will enjoy. People will go to the theater, For cinema, for restaurants, to see fireworks. “
“There are fewer games (in Germany and Spain), less than here, in the German league there are 18 teams and not 20, one cup championship and not two. They have a pause, and in Spain as well, the cup championship is played from one game and not Two. So the difference is great. “
“It is up to the protection of the players, they will enjoy more this way, and the people too. People say they cannot live without football, they are able to live off the ball for a while. Frankly, the matches are too much,” the champion of all domestic competitions in England concluded last season.
